This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications to develop and maintain a Nathan Shock Centers Coordinating Center (NSC3). Applicants should be familiar with Nathan Shock Centers (NSC) activities, but they do not need to be part of an active Center. Major activities of the proposed NSC3 will include improving visibility of the NSC nationally and internationally, improving collaboration and coordination among NSC, enhancing NSC training activities, facilitating the sharing of resources, and interacting with NIA and NSC to develop strategies and plans for further development. The successful application will include a proposal to improve transparency and the interactions of NSC with the research community. It should also leverage existing bioinformatics resources.
Only one application per institution is allowed.
